The Weeknd recently said that he wants to work together with Madonna on a classic album. During an interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music, The Weeknd talked about how much he admires the famous singer and his dream of producing an album with her.
They released a song called “Popular” as part of the soundtrack for the HBO series ‘The Idol.’ The song is about the challenges of fame and wanting to be popular no matter what.
He talked about how excited he is to work with Madonna and his idea of making a timeless album with her. He thinks she is a really smart person with a different way of looking at things, and he wants to bring something new to her music. This collaboration might be a hint of more projects together in the future.
The Weeknd also talked about how proud he is of the song “Popular” and the process of making it. He worked on the production for a while and thought the vocals fit perfectly. Having Playboi Carti join in on the song added a different style to it. The Weeknd sees Madonna’s involvement in the song and the HBO series as a big deal because it shows that she thinks highly of it and confirms her status as a top pop star.
“Popular” is the second single from The Idol Vol. 1, which is the soundtrack for the HBO series created by The Weeknd, Sam Levinson, and Reza Fahim. The show, which explores the complexities of fame, premiered on June 4.
Fans are really excited about the collaboration between The Weeknd and Madonna, and they can’t wait to see what else they will do together and if they will release an album as a team.
